Section 478
What could he use to teach the other person a lesson?
What kind of tone was that? Acting like our relationship was extraordinary and even wanting to teach someone a lesson on my behalf.
We are only meeting for the first time, are we really that close?
Can you not say such ambiguous things?
You are courting death yourself, do not drag me into it.
Gu Ningshuang was extremely furious and said with displeasure,
"We are not close, so please mind your words and do not let my master misunderstand."
Anyway, this fellow already knew her form of address for Xu Hao.
It was nothing to say it out again.
It could demonstrate her stance to Xu Hao.
Su Chen was utterly numb.
Calling him my master left and right.
Hearing it caused him immense heartache.
Still afraid of others misunderstanding?
You are my fiancée, after all.
Haven't the roles been reversed?
Xu Hao, who had been watching a good show all along, spoke up.
Comforting Gu Ningshuang, he said,
"Alright, it is not worth generating Life Qi over such trash. Let him get lost; I will show you a big treasure."
Gu Ningshuang's heart sank.
She pursed her lips.
She had thought Xu Hao's gentleness towards her meant a change in his attitude towards her.
Now it seemed he had indeed come to find her just to treat her as a tool.
But she was already pregnant.
Surely he wouldn't still be so deranged?
Can't he exercise some restraint?
Gu Ningshuang's mind was in chaos, her thoughts running wild.
But she still obediently said to Su Chen,
"I will never agree to the arranged marriage you mentioned. Do not come looking for me in the future; get lost as far as you can."
Su Chen clenched his fists, veins throbbing on his arms.
His heart was battered and riddled with scars.
Look, this was his fiancée.
How obedient she was to that person's words.
Telling him to get lost made him get lost right away.
Su Chen's lungs were about to explode from Qi.
It was not generating Life Qi at Gu Ningshuang.
It was all because of Xu Hao.
Gu Ningshuang's current state was entirely the result of Xu Hao's conditioning.
He hated himself for not appearing by Gu Ningshuang's side sooner.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have fallen into such a tragic fate.
Hearing Xu Hao call him trash, Su Chen gnashed his teeth.
"Who are you calling trash? Say it again."
Xu Hao looked at him, his smile unchanged, and spat out two words.
"Trash!"
[Ding… Su Chen's anger soared to the heavens, Emotion Points + 1000…]
Su Chen's fingernails on his clenched fists were already digging into his flesh.
Could he be even more humiliating?
This was just like stealing his home, embracing his wife, and mocking him for being incompetent.
He was so angry he wanted to kill someone.
Gu Ningshuang was also trembling with fear.
Wasn't Xu Hao's possessiveness way too strong?
She had already said she had nothing to do with this fellow and explicitly stated she did not agree.
Yet Xu Hao still wouldn't let him off.
She had to admit that Xu Hao's disguise was very good.
No matter how domineering and cold he was in front of her.
What he displayed in the eyes of the world was always gentleness and refinement.
Now, in front of Su Chen, he unreservedly revealed his true side.
And he even humiliated him face-to-face.
One could see what kind of Life Qi he was in.
Solely because he was her childhood betrothed, though the two of them didn't know each other at all beforehand.
Xu Hao treated him like this.
How would he treat her later?
Gu Ningshuang was filled with worry.
In order to completely clear her relationship with Su Chen in front of Xu Hao,
she hardened her heart and said,
"Your name is Su Chen, right? Good… I acknowledge the childhood betrothal between us, and now I formally notify you…"
Su Chen was overjoyed.
He looked at Gu Ningshuang with excitement.
Was she going to agree to their engagement?
Although he didn't know how many times Gu Ningshuang and this man had been together,
and even became pregnant with a child,
as long as Gu Ningshuang was willing to be with him, he could not care less.
Call him a cuckold or a second-hand acceptor, he would accept it all.
Who asked Gu Ningshuang to be so beautiful?
However, Gu Ningshuang's next sentence made him plunge into an ice cellar.
"I now formally notify you that I do not agree to this engagement, and I am breaking off our engagement with you."
Breaking off the engagement?
Su Chen was stunned.
His footsteps staggered slightly.
Not acknowledging the childhood betrothal and annulling the engagement.
He would have felt a bit better in his heart.
Breaking off the engagement was a blatant humiliation to the other party.
He kept shouting about breaking off the engagement with the Gu family.
In reality, it was just annulling the engagement.
That way, both sides would save face.
Otherwise, if he were truly the kind of person who aggressively broke off engagements regardless of the other party's face,
he wouldn't even have accepted the marriage certificate given by the Old man.
Gu Ningshuang suddenly accepted the childhood betrothal only to propose breaking off the engagement with him.
It was purely to humiliate him on purpose.
And her purpose in doing so…
